Habakkuk 1:1-4
1The burdenH4853 which HabakkukH2265 the prophetH5030 did seeH2372.
2O YhwhH3068, how long shall I cryH7768, and thou wilt not hearH8085! even cry outH2199 unto thee of violenceH2555, and thou wilt not saveH3467!
3Why dost thou shewH7200 me iniquityH205, and cause me to beholdH5027 grievanceH5999? for spoilingH7701 and violenceH2555 are before me: and there are that raise upH5375 strifeH7379 and contentionH4066.
4Therefore the lawH8451 is slackedH6313, and judgmentH4941 doth neverH5331 go forthH3318: for the wickedH7563 doth compassH3803 about the righteousH6662; therefore wrongH6127 judgmentH4941 proceedethH3318.1
